Charts and Special Windows
|
|
|
FlightSim Commander provides a large
number of chart widows and special feature windows which intend to
facilitate flight planning and navigation. These windows will give
additional information not necessarily displayed on the main map

Airport Information Windowion WindowThe Airport
Information
Window provides detailed graphic and textual information on
individual airports. This includes among other things runways, frequencies, parking
positions, latitude and longitude of the ARP, elevation, and
magnetic variation. Of course, airport information can also be
printed out. |

Departure and Arrival Window
The Departure and Arrival Window
displays for departure the route from the runway to the first
waypoint, while for arrival it shows the route from the last
waypoint to the runway. The turns displayed consider, of course,
aircraft size and speed, so that a turn will be tighter for a Cessna
and fairly wide for a Boeing B747.
In addition, textual information is
provided below the graphic display. This information can be given
for any runway and may again be printed out, if needed.

 |
User Waypoints
In addition to standard official
waypoints you can define your own waypoints which are saved in a
separate database and are treated in flight planning just as any
other waypoint.
FlightSim Commander ships with a database of roughly 1000 user
waypoints, mostly reporting points. |

|
 |
Runway Window
The Runway Window provides three
graphic displays, two the departure and arrival airport
respectively. and one showing an approach chart for the landing
runway selected in the combo box at the bottom of the window. Again,
all these displays can be printed out.

|
 |
Logbook
Each flight is automatically recorded
and can then be entered into the logbook.
The logbook informs about fuel consumption, flight and aircraft
parameters, and waypoint information. |
|
 |
Find Object Window
Did you ever wonder where e.g. airway
A11 is located and where it starts and where it ends?
No problem. Open the Find Object Window, type in the appropriate
code, select the desired item from the list, and the object will
then be displayed in red on the map so that it can be very easily
identified. |
